Wrestlers struggle against Elmira

The Outlaws suffered a 57-27 loss at the dual wrestling match held at Elmira on Thursday, February 4. Elmira's tough matmen were just more than the Outlaws could handle.

Three Outlaws, Parker Ford, Zach Reid, and Dyut Fetrow, were the only Outlaws able to record wins.

Ford (106 pounds) was able to pin Gray Canada in 1:44, Reid won by a fall in 2:59 over Scott Sanders-Anderson, and Fetrow (138 pounds) pinned Zach Russell in 2:49.

Coach John Down commented, "It has been a tough season, with ups and downs, especially for the more experienced wrestlers. Many expectations have not been reached or are looking out of reach."

Sisters was scheduled to have their final match at home against Junction City on Tuesday, February 9. The Outlaws will participate in the Regional Tournament held at Elmira on Friday and Saturday, February 19 and 20.

"We seem to do better at tournaments than duals, so I hope the team shows commitment, desire, and great work ethic this next week for the Regional Tournament," said Downs.
